- "Edited by Dr. Percy Dearmer, Canon of Westminster".
- "The issue, indeed, is simple. The motives and methods of human life are not sufficiently moralised: it was to moralise the machinery of production, to limit the power of selfishness, that Wilberforce and Shaftesbury were working a century ago; and the whole world now enjoys what Christians then won: but in many ways industry and business, and family life, and civic and political activity, need further moralisation. Money -- the necessary use of tokens of exchange -- has been overlooked in its moral aspect (in spite of what Christ said about it) .... And, alas, there was one aspect of human life which was not understood a hundred years ago; and to this our present miseries are mainly due. The very word 'international' had then only just been coined by Jeremy Bentham. The whole conception of moralising international relations was in its infancy. So the world went on to its doom. So, because the nations and their representatives have not yet learnt the elements of international behaviour, we stand at this moment of writing on the brink of irretrievable disaster. It is in a very real sense true that only Christ can save the world from ruin to-day. Are we prepared to let his spirit save the nations from themselves ?" -- Preface, p. 10-11.

- "This is an account of Christians as peacemakers. .... the Christian peace movements which originated at the end of the 70s and the beginning of the 80s are an unprecedented response of the Christian commitment to peace." "For a better understanding of what is happening in our day, the story goes back to the appearance of the first Christian peace movements. It attempts to indicate characteristics of the traditional Christian peace movements which enabled them to converge with the newcomers. With the coming on the scene of the new Christian peace movements, the story traces their development, their ideals and also their frustrations. It discovers and analyzes the `love-hate' relationships which bind the new Christian peace movements to their churches. On both partners in the relationship, in many cases the influence of the World Council of Churches has been decisive. Equally important was the peace mission of the Conference of European Churches, which helped the Christian peace movements to become so influential. The story ends with a review of the Christian peace movement in Eastern Europe". -- Intro. p. [ix].

- Notes
- The author reflects on watching the opening ceremonies of the 2012 London Olympic Games and the parade of athletes. Each country entered led by their own flag bearer and two young women, one carrying the name of the country and the other carrying a large copper petal. These copper petals were attached to a central hub in the middle of the stadium and finally set ablaze. "With absolute amazement, we watched them rise up to become the great cauldron of Olympic flame that lit up the night sky. Moments like this always bring me to tears -- tears of joy for the spectacle of respect and peace among the nations. I find myself thinking of great texts from the writings of the prophets. .... May the spirit of the London Olympics live on in this world. May the flame of these great games kindle in the hearts of all people the true love of peace."

- "To write an account of social, political and economic thought in the ecumenical movement might be seen to be an audacious enterprise -- not for lack of material (though much of it needs to be brought to light from archives and many scattered places of publication), but because of the very nature of the social-ethical enterprise within the ecumenical movement. The context in which the 20th-century ecumenical movement was born differed completely from that of today, and the shifts in central social concerns and in the political and economic landscape have been so rapid that any attempt to keep up with the demands on social ethics is almost futile. .... Nevertheless, there are two reasons why the attempt must be made. The reconciliation just mentioned cannot take place apart from historical insights. The ecumenical movement is is danger, due to the fast-changing world, of forgetting its past. Preserving the ecumenical memory is a vital task for ourselves and the ecumenical generation to come. Second, no concise but inclusive documentary survey of social, political and economic thought in the 20th-century has ever been published. This book tries to fill that gap". -- Intro., p. [vii]-viii.
